Chapter 108: Before the Beginning of the Food Conference
During the Ming Dynasty, the system of the Yuan Dynasty was inherited from the farmers in the northern regions of Beizhili, Shandong, Jiangsu, and Anhui as horse breeders, feeding stallions, and paying foals.
And then, of course, such a system led to a popular uprising, and the horse households, unlike the peasants who were only in the middle of the fields with picks and hoes, had horses, and the power of each horse was extremely strong, and they came and went like the wind. Therefore, in Liu Liu, the "Mahu Rebellion" led by Liu Qi was suppressed for a long time.
And this time in the horse team, the leader is not all local heroes, but there is also a Wen'an student Zhao Yi with his younger brother and five hundred people to join, all rebellion and rebellion if there are scholars involved in it, the nature is always different, tens of thousands of cavalry in the center of the Ming Dynasty wanton activities are even more troublesome, the Ming Dynasty at that time on this matter of evaluation has been the so-called "overthrow of the Sheji Rebellion", elite soldiers and strong generals have been dispatched to encircle and suppress, there is no field and attack ability of the horse households are naturally a failure.
Liu Liu, Liu Qi and the living man were either killed in battle, or they were captured and beheaded, and the Nine Clans were exterminated. Now these people have become everyone's talking point on the streets, the so-called second marshal of the Liu family and vice marshal Zhao.
However, in Jiang Feng's memory, things are not like this, in Yunzhongyue's middle, the Liu family brothers and Zhao Qi both appeared as the state of the Great Demon King, the vertical and horizontal Ma Hu called himself a white-clothed divine soldier, and Zhao Xiucai was originally Wen'an was a big family at that time.
The Liu brothers grabbed his wife and daughter, tied them to the horse with ropes, and if they didn't agree to cling, they would immediately trample on the horse and die, and had to join the rebellion, but after joining, because of the original foundation and the keen observation ability of the reader, he immediately became one of the leaders.
However, later in the field battle, he was crushed by the horse team of the border army and died under the chaotic knife, but he was quite strategic and ambitious, and the image of being bold was already in Jiang Feng's mind.
Of course, he lowered his voice and drank there, and when Zhao Xiucai heard these two words, his whole body seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he said in a trembling voice:
"The name of disobedience, the owner doesn't need to mention it, when our whole family was exterminated by the Nine Clans, some people ran out, some ran to Liaodong as a homeless and were taken in by the guard, and I stayed in ......"
Jiang Feng's mind was racing, but he suddenly asked a nonsensical word:
"What's your relationship with Yang Da?"
"He was my cousin, and I grew up pulling him when I was a child."
"Lao Zhao, Lao Zhao, are they close to you?"
Zhao Xiucai's face gradually calmed down, listening to Jiang Feng call him Lao Zhao, judging from the fact that he had followed Jiang Feng for so long, this showed that Jiang Feng did not have any murderous intentions, but when he was in a state of turmoil just now, he could only tell the truth at this time.
"He was raised by me since he was a child......"
With a "snap", Jiang Feng slapped his face, but with a smile on his face, he said:
"Lao Zhao, no matter what you hide from me, I don't blame me in the past, but since you are a person from my Jiang family, you naturally have to work hard for my Jiang family, don't you say?"
As soon as he heard Jiang Feng clearly say the words of forgiveness, Zhao Xiucai was ecstatic and kowtowed in the carriage, crying there silently, unable to say a word, Jiang Feng poked out of the carriage at this time, and looked at the soldiers from the Beijing camp on both sides of the carriage.
Because there were seven or eight carts in total, the soldiers had already climbed up, Zhang Liang and Chen Dahu chatted there, laughing from time to time, obviously quite happy, Jiang Feng called Zhang Liang over, and directly ordered:
"You and Dahu took the brothers from Jingying to greet the people in Wulouzhuang, and said that Zhao Xiucai lived a stable life with us, and he didn't worry about it, and Zhao Xiucai felt that the children in the Yang family should read and write, and they were going to take them to a private school in Jingshi, which was better than delaying the children on the mountain.
After finishing speaking, Zhao Xiucai, who was stunned behind him, said:
"Lao Zhao, do you have any tokens? Give Xiao Zhang and Da Hu, so as not to misunderstand the people on the mountain. ”
Zhao Xiucai wanted to say something, but when he saw Jiang Feng's eyes, he still took out a small pendant from his arms, which seemed to be made of pecans and handed it to Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang glanced at Jiang Feng, and Jiang Feng said:
"There must still be some work on the mountain that has not been completed, you and Dahu have brought the brothers from the warrior camp to help, and don't freeze the child."
As he spoke, he clenched one hand into a fist and shook the other hand on it, the meaning of this sign language is to take the child as a hostage, but don't do anything else, Zhang Liang nodded, and shouted, and the few big cars behind him had already given enough money because of Jiang Feng. So they all pulled the soldiers according to the order and rushed back to the fifth floor village not far away.
When Jiang Feng returned to the carriage, Zhao Xiucai's face was bitter, and he wanted to say something, Jiang Feng raised one hand and said with his fingers bent:
"I don't want to continue to ask about your origin, I won't investigate what you and Wulouzhuang have done, but since they are all people that I Jiang Feng bought with money, I will take care of your affairs, but I want to be at ease, I always feel at ease when I have a hostage in my hand, and it's good for children to read some books."
Zhao Xiucai smiled bitterly, although he didn't have any rules and regulations to do things, but he grasped the point, as long as there were hostages and children in his hands, he didn't worry about the disobedience of more than a dozen families in the fifth floor village, anyway, he just needed someone to be obedient, but Jiang Feng did it to this extent, and it could be regarded as the end of benevolence and righteousness, Zhao Xiucai only hesitated slightly, and then kowtowed heavily.
When Jiang Feng returned to the capital, he took seven or eight children, and it turned out that the dozen or so families in the fifth floor village heard that the children in the Yang family were going to study in Beijing, and they were all clamoring for their children to come.
After Zhao Xiucai saw these children, he had nothing to think about, and after returning to the capital, he bought a house next to the Ma family brothers according to Jiang Feng's arrangement, opened up the courtyard, and settled those children to live in, which was also Jiang Feng's intention, so that these children were by the side of the Ma family brothers, one is to protect and take care of, and the other is to control.
The children eat in "a little profit", spend money to go to a private school in Nancheng, and go to a little profit to help in the afternoon of literacy and reading, which is a treatment that ordinary children's children do not have, for a while, people who know the situation are beginning to say that Jiang Feng is a good person, but Zhao Xiucai, who is familiar with the inside story, understands in his heart that he still has more than a dozen families in Wulouzhuang who have been completely tied to Jiang Feng's body, and they have common prosperity and loss.
After seeing those children on the road, Zhao Xiucai wrote a letter when he returned to Jingshi, and found someone who knew how to read and sent it over, he knew that Jiang Feng would definitely read the letter, but there was nothing to worry about, what was written on the letter was to let those people in Wulouzhuang must follow Jiang Feng loyally, when writing the letter, Zhao Xiucai smiled to himself, loyal, he has been doing this, isn't it a matter of course?
On the twentieth day of the lunar month, all the people in Huifeng Lou began to get busy in the lobby and kitchen when the sky was not yet cold, although the owner Jiang Feng's recent thoughts were on the Zhuangzi on the fifth floor mountain, Tie Dan had already come over once on a fast horse, bringing a list of materials that needed to be bought, and Jiang Feng gave the silver without saying a word.
Zhao Xiucai is also weird, but he still worries about everything, Bowen is standing there, his usual spirit and loud voice are gone, although he is neatly dressed, but he is sitting and standing there non-stop, and he has not had a stick of incense, and he has already run towards the backyard more than a dozen times.
The shopkeeper over there was not as kind as usual, yelling at the people on the side, just tossing, when the sky was slightly shining, Jiang Feng yawned and appeared in front of the door. After returning home, Xiao Biesheng was newly married, and the young men and women were naturally entangled, and the spring night was short.
However, Su Guanyue also knew the importance of this morning's matter, but he had already gotten up when he was ugly, and Jiang Feng was blasted out by the light of day, and Jiang Feng, who originally wanted to sleep lazily, rode over very depressed.
As soon as I entered the hall of Huifeng Building, I saw that Bao Fatzi was restless there, and suddenly felt a little angry, walked over in a few steps, slapped the door of the head, and asked loudly:
"Old Bao, what are you doing this morning?"
Bowen had never seen Jiang Feng so vicious to him, so he was startled, and replied without thinking about anything:
"Cooking to ......"
"You've been doing it for decades, what are you panicking about, aren't you also cooking this morning, I'm afraid of a ball!"
After shouting, Jiang Feng yawned again and followed the shopkeeper Wang there and said:
"Lao Wang, whisper, I'll go sleep in the back for a while"
After speaking, he walked to the back wing, everyone in the room was stunned, looking at each other, Zhao Xiucai broke the silence with a wry smile, and the busy and nervous people who got up in the morning looked at each other and laughed at each other, isn't it just cooking, we are doing these things every day, what are you panicking about?
